Q. Show the Categorization of Alloys?

Alloys are able to be classified by the number of their constituents. An alloy with two components is described as a binary alloy and one with three is a ternary alloy and so forth.

Alloys are able to be further classified as either substitution alloys or interstitial alloys depending on their method of formation. In the substitution alloys the atoms of the components are approximately the same size and the various atoms are simply substituted for one another in the crystal structure. An illustration of a (binary) substitution alloy is brass made up of copper and zinc. Interstitial alloys take place when the atoms of one component are substantially smaller than the other and the smaller atoms fit into the spaces (interstices) between the larger atoms.

An alloy is a metal mixed with an additional metal to make it stronger.
